Wherefore

Another week, another story. Here I am, about to close on a home and watching the end of the world on December 21, 2012 on Discovery Channel does not help give you the warm fuzzy feeling that you have made the right decision. The end of the world or mass destruction in about 3 years just make the kind of stress and effort we made towards our own little piece of America so trivial, so "what-for?"

So yeah, we are about to settle down properly but it has been a real eye-opener how things are done here. The amount of paperwork is unbelievable. Can't wait for it all to end. And still there is no warm and fuzzy feeling, no excitement, no anticipation of coming into our own. At this stage of my life, it simply frightens me. Am I sure about once more, putting that heavy yoke once more around my puny shoulders. I won't live to pay it all off. But there is no way out. Either build some equity or just work for your landlord. Maybe it does not have to last that long. Just the last one to go and I can lay down the mantle. And rest. Or expire.
